tina | Why do black billionaires Oprah and Bob Johnson invest in Africa.? |
I know Oprah and viewers have invested in Katrina victims. I don't know if BET's Bob Johnson has domestic investments. But Oprah is investing in a school in South Africa for girls and a school for girls in Israel. But with all the problems in America, why do you think they don't do more for African Americans? Bill Gates does a lot for inner city schools with donations of computers but then he can buy them 30x over. Do they get more tax breaks by investing in foreign countries? |

I think they feel probably morally obligated to invest in Africa. And perhaps for the publicity as well. But I will take them on their word that they are sincere.
Spending money on American schools is not the best solution though. They need more discipine and better teachers first. The fact that over 70% of African American children are born without a father in the household is the number one problem. Better family planning and personal responsibility classes would be the most important. How can an illiterate 18 year old single mother help her student with her home work? Cooperation and help from parents is necessary for most students to be successful.
Catholic schools spend about one fourth the amount per student than public schools do, and get significantly better results! So more money isn't the best solution. |

I guess it's all what tugs your heart strings. Everybody has to pick their charity and don't necessarily let you know everthing they are up to. |

Because those countries need it more. Here we are very fortunate to have alot of wealthy people who do donate to our charities and schools. Usually in private. Over there they are warfare areas, girls are treated as second class in Africa.
Israel pays alot on military and not every girl wants to fight.
They both help out here to but they try to help where it is really needed. The gov.'t in Africa isn't as helpful as the USA, don't laugh. |

You sound american. Dont be such a self obbsessed bunch of idiots. It always about what you havent got!!
Dont you think that its their money and they can do what the hell they like with it!!!!!!!!
People like you make me really angry.
Have you ever considered the possiblitiy of helping others simply because they need help? Life isnt all about tax breaks and self importance!!!!!! |

Because their money still doesn't compare to some ones like Bill gates,,,,Oprah does her part,mostly for the blacks but hey its her cash anyways. |

Honestly, I don't think Oprah much agrees with the terms of United State's African Americans. Often they have disputes calling the culture "ineducated" when truly it was how the culture was raised since slave days. One cannot banish their culture, and that is where the problem lies. Oprah and such, place a higher importance on integration into society, become one with becoming one with perceivably "white" personality traits, while black culture usually pertains to something a bit less sophisticated. This disagreeance has probably forced oprah to look in places with a little more "hope" so to speak. People don't want to give up their culture, and they shouldn't have to. It's simply some of the ideals in the culture, usually lead to less than productive lives, and this is what oprah and other successful black entrepreneurs do not like. |

Bill gates can buy them but then you're giving the fish to the people instead of the tools to help themselves. Yes, there;s tax reasons, but that doesn't mean they don't give because want to. They give because they know it'll make a change. The amount they give exceeds the taxs they pay anyway.
The question is to those complaining, is - what are you giving in you're country. Asians, sikhs, people from all over world come to USA and become millionnaires, recently 12 people have become millionnaires and they worked in a resturant washing dishes, security guard and one guy worked delivering pizza but all built their own empires, in a short space of time, in your own country, in your own hometown.
What does that tell everyone here? Not that there is no opportunity in USA but people not willing to be patiant, build their dreams and realise that it will take some years, maybe 5-10 years to make their dreams a realisation. Broke people are too hasty, want it now, and guess what? They're in a job because of that thought instead of using the job to do something.
I see so many from different countries come to UK too and in just 5 years build an empire and STILL people born here, moan about why life is rubbish, why they don't get paid enough.
Question - what are you? For your own community? An asset or a burden?
Say thank God they are doing something with their money, it helps to make the world better. They had a dream now, u r in a country of dreams. So what are people here doing about them?
Looks like maybe watching others come in, grab leadership, opportunity and make it happen. |

no they just refuse to admit they are americans, it would be like bill gates investing in England because his ancestors came from there hundreds of years ago
blacks should view america as their motherland if they were born here, especially if their parents and their parents were as well
things arent as bad for them nowdays, and they can help to make things better here if they want to, for themselves and all americans |

I don't know, but it really speaks to the hypocrisy of many of the USA's black leaders. |

Maybe they feel that blacks here in the US are a lost cause. |
